Best Cabin Camping in Arizona

1,354 Reviews
CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Arizona state parks and KOA locations feature log cabins for visitors seeking comfortable alternatives to tent camping. Lost Dutchman State Park Campground provides air-conditioned cabins with electricity and basic furnishings, while Patagonia Lake State Park offers lakeside cabins with picnic tables and fire rings. Several KOA locations, including Flagstaff KOA and Holbrook/Petrified Forest KOA, maintain clean cabin accommodations with varying amenities from rustic to deluxe options. Most cabin sites include outdoor picnic areas and fire pits for cooking and gathering. According to one visitor at Camp Saguaro, "The hosts are lovely and the mercantile is adorable. The grounds are exceptionally well kept and everything is clean and tidy."

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Basic cabins typically provide beds, tables, and electricity without plumbing, while upgraded units may include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and climate control. Pet policies vary significantly between locations - Flagstaff KOA and Tucson Lazydays KOA welcome pets in designated cabins, while most state park cabins prohibit animals inside accommodations. Peak season reservations should be made 3-6 months in advance, particularly for popular locations near Grand Canyon National Park. One camper at Ramsey Canyon Cabins noted, "The owners/managers are very friendly and kind. They told us where else to explore down in this region."

Most cabin accommodations include beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Cooking facilities vary widely - some locations offer only outdoor fire rings with grills, while others provide indoor kitchenettes with refrigerators and microwaves. KOA locations typically maintain on-site stores with basic groceries, firewood, and camping supplies. Kartchner Caverns State Park and Dead Horse Ranch State Park cabins require campers to bring all food items and cooking equipment. Cabins located in northern Arizona mountain regions may require additional cold-weather gear during winter months, while desert locations necessitate extra water and sun protection in summer.

    Seligman-Route 66 KOA

    A must-stop when weary!

    We were super tired on our trip and happen to come across this cute TeePee at the site. We stopped and got one of their cozy little cabins, which had everything that we needed. There was a full size bed, a bunk bed, a desk and chair, a cute little porch swing, a fire pit, a water spigot and inside the cabin they also had air conditioning and a couple heaters. All we did was grab our sleeping bags and throw them on the bed. The cabin had outlets, so we grabbed our portable charger and fridge and we settled right in! The compound itself has a laundromat, a pool, a space for your dog to play and stretch out, a playground for the kids and a really great store that is pretty well stocked with just about anything that you could need. The staff was awesome!

    This KOA is very clean and has ton's of amenities on site, very nice showers and bathrooms, some of the amenities are mini golf, pan for gems, trails, go karts, peddle cars, playground, laundry room, store,small arcade, just to name a few, not all the amenities are free.

    Arizona Oasis RV Resort

    They have it all

    From rv with full hooks ups, cabin rentals which are basic, beds and air with community shared showers and bathrooms. Mini houses to rent which we stayed in and they are perfect for a few couples and small Children. Nice pool only problem is it’s a little to warm with it being so hot. The hot tub, kid pool and pool were all the exact same temp, water front access to the river and boat launch bring a pop up because barely any shade if you plan to play on the shore Great place for sure! Covered rv parking for an additional fee as well as playground for children and dog run for your fur babies.

    Holbrook/Petrified Forest KOA

    Very Well Kept!

    In my cross country move, I stopped here for a night to visit the Petrified National Park. I had never stayed at a KOA before but got a cabin with no bathroom for 1 night. It was very nice! Cozy. There was a strong heater, and it was pet friendly! The manager was nice and the park was well kept!

    Tucson - Lazydays KOA

    Very nice facilities

    I stayed two nights with a Class B Van and the full hookup site was private, had a small grassy are, a picnic table and a portable fire pit. The common areas were very nice including the several gas firepits with chairs for just a couple or larger group. I was a little disappointed with the bathhouse/restroom, but that is because I am picky. The important thing is that I would definitely stay there again.

    Gila Campground — Roper Lake State Park

    Nice area- if you get the right spot

    My husband, myself and our 2 small dogs live in Tucson, AZ. We recently acquired a roof top tent and we’ve been trying out various campgrounds across the Southwest.

    Water recreation areas in AZ are sparse, so this place holds a certain appeal. The facilities are nice and clean but if you’re not careful you could end up with only a view of your neighbors. We didn’t stay at the tent cabins, but they also looked nice. I’d come back to stay in the cabins with a group of friends or as a one night stop on the way somewhere else. It’s a great place to stop, swim, shower and hit the road for another adventure. When you haven’t seen a shower in days, they are so beckoning.

    Pros: larger sites and further spaced out then your typical RV park. Several sites include a covered picnic table(most in the Gila Loop do not). All sites have water, a fire pit and a table. Also- fishing! $20 a night for non-electric site is a good price since you can take free hot showers in the park. Cell phone service (T-Mobile) and WiFi).

    Cons: Most sites don’t have much of a view. Very few trees. Only a few sites are suited for tent camping. Busy park, expect to see a lot of other campers. Hot tub is permanently closed.

    Stewart Campground

    Great shade for the summer months

    The Cave Creek Canyon on the western edge of the Chiricahua Mountains is a spectacular area that will completely take you by surprise. This cute campground tucked into the trees will charm your socks off!

    Each site has the standard picnic table, bear locker, fire ring and lots of shade. The bathroom is a vault toilet, kept clean by the volunteer camp host, staying at Sandy Flat. This campground is rather small with just a couple small RV sites and lots of shade. Perfect for tent camping though. Great for warmer months, not so great for solar charging due to the shade, so we moved up the road to Sunny Flat campground. There are two small cabins available for rent near the forest visitor’s center, check with the Coronado National Forest, Douglas District office.

    The area is a birder’s paradise and at certain times of year can get very busy. Great opportunities for hiking, biking and wildlife viewing throughout the entire mountain range. All the campgrounds are first-come, first-served.

    There's not much in the area for food and gas, so come prepared. There is one small grill/basic grocery store down the mountain, but if you are looking for real groceries, shop before you come.

    Holbrook/Petrified Forest KOA

    Clean, friendly, and comfy

    This KOA has lot's of space, from private tent sites to RV with full hookups, fully equipped cabins, even a giant Wigwam to stay at. It also has a pool, playground, small libary, and a well stocked store, everyday they cook food that you can buy instead of cooking yourself. This KOA is in the route 66 town of Holbrook, a small quiet town, with gas, groceries, and fast food all with in a mile of the campsite, the Petirfied Forest is a 30 mintue drive away and worth the trip. During this trip we took a big family group, and normally we tent camp, but we decided to stay in their biggest cabin, it was big and beautiful 3 a/c units, full small kitchen, loft full bathroom and lot's of comfy seat's, all you had to do was bring your clothes and food, everything was there for you. From the gas grill to the fully equipped kitchen, it was a super easy stay. This cabin slept 7 and had a eat in porch as well. It was a little on the pricey side at $160 a night but we felt worth it's price.Check out the video for a video tour of the cabin.

    Kingman KOA

    Overnighter

    The people at the Kingman Koa were very nice and accommodating. Rv spots are all dirt but surrounded by trees and bushes for some privacy. Bathrooms were older but clean. There is a cute dog park with a few tunnels to climb on, but no grass. A bunch to do for kids. They have a nice playground, mini golf, horse shoes, and a pool. The pool was good side but the water was alittle merky.

    Adorable mini log cabins for rent.

    Overall good place for short trips. Tucked in a neighborhood and close to retail and town. Propane fill up available on site.
